At the Senior Center This Week: Italian Sauces, Broadway Hits, and a Monster Mash

The Brookfield Senior Center, 100 Pocono Road, has a full slate this week, with a cooking session, a music program, and a Halloween party across three days.

Tuesday, October 27, brings Secrets of the Italian Kitchen: Mastering Sauces at 10:30 a.m., a morning session for anyone who wants to sharpen their sauce-making.

Wednesday, October 28, features 70s & 80s Broadway Hits with Katrina DeVona at 10:45 a.m., a musical program drawing on two decades of Broadway favorites.

Thursday, October 29, the center hosts the Monster Mash Halloween Party at noon, its Halloween celebration for the week.

All three programs take place at the Senior Center on Pocono Road. Thursday visitors should note that Town Hall, next door at the same address, will be busy that day: early voting runs extended hours, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Trick or Treat at Town Hall follows from 3 to 4:30 p.m.

The week's spread — cooking on Tuesday, music on Wednesday, and a party on Thursday — gives regular visitors a reason to come back on more than one day, and gives first-time visitors three very different introductions to the center. All three start in the morning or at midday, keeping afternoons free.

The Senior Center's programs are part of the town's regular community calendar, which also includes library programs, Craft Center workshops, and town meetings through the end of the week.
